Yuck is most compared to Dinosaur, Jr., I know, but I saw DJ live a bunch of years ago and was underwhelmed. I went with Replacements because I like them both and the Replacements have that edgy, low-fi-ish but melodic sound.

I went with TDCC not for the vocals, but for the stylish, non-distorted lead guitar lines.
